In Arizona, Dignan "rescues" his friend Anthony from a voluntary psychiatric unit, where he has been staying for self-described exhaustion.

As a practice heist, the two friends break into Anthony's family's house, stealing specific items from a previously-agreed list.

Bob learns that his marijuana crop back home has been discovered by police, and that his older brother has been arrested.

As Dignan is leaving, Inez asks an English-speaking male friend of hers to chase after him and tell him that she loves Anthony.

The car breaks down eventually and Anthony reveals that the envelope Dignan gave to Inez contained the rest of their cash.

Narrating a letter to his sister, Anthony says he and Bob have settled into a routine back at home that is keeping him busy.

The group conducts their heist at the cold storage facility with Applejack and Kumar, accomplices from Mr. Henry's landscaping company.

The plan quickly falls apart with Kumar unable to crack the safe, and Bob accidentally firing his gun, which in turn triggers a cardiac event in Applejack.

While Bob and Anthony are saying their goodbyes, Dignan begins rattling off an escape plan and tells his friends to get into position for a get-away.
